BeardFour Posted November 21, 2016 Share Posted November 21, 2016 Hello all, I've had my 2004 A2, 8P13.2 v6 for nearly a year now and I still love it (81k on the clock), I'm barely an amateur DIY in terms of mechanicals but I have an issue with the car that I'd like peoples thoughts on before I take it to a garage - just in terms of checks, maintenance I can do before I call the professionals in. It boils down to a slightly uneven power delivery, its barely noticeable but most apparent at around 3k revs, when in 4th gear - If I hold the power steady there is a very gentle but rhythmic blip from the engine, passengers don't notice it but I can sense it everytime Does anyone have similar experience of this? Its not long since its major service so I would like to get a better understanding if anyone can shed some light? Thanks in advance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BeardFour Posted November 21, 2016 Author Share Posted November 21, 2016 Not sure if this is related but I have read about similar aged VW having similar problems that VW fixed with a ECU update? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trevor Posted November 22, 2016 Share Posted November 22, 2016 Have heard of this fault but I would also look at other possibilities and possibly scan the ECU to see if it has generated any fault codes for the blip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
